# Restrict permissions of new members
|
|
|
|
{!admin-only.md!}
|
|
|
|
In large Zulips where
|
|
[anyone can join](/help/allow-anyone-to-join-without-an-invitation), it can
|
|
be useful to restrict what new members can do, to make it easier to cope
|
|
with spammers and confused users.
|
|
|
|
Members are **new members** from when they join till when their account ages
|
|
past a certain **waiting period** threshold. After that they are **full members**.
|
|
You can configure how long the waiting period is, as well as which actions require
|
|
being a full member.
|
|
|
|
Currently, the following actions support limiting access to full members.
|
|
|
|
- [Creating streams](/help/configure-who-can-create-streams)
|
|
- [Adding users to streams](/help/configure-who-can-invite-to-streams)
|
|
- [Restricting posting to a stream](/help/stream-sending-policy)
|
|
|
|
### Set waiting period for new members
|
|
|
|
{start_tabs}
|
|
|
|
{settings_tab|organization-permissions}
|
|
|
|
2. Under **Other permissions**, configure **Waiting period before new members turn into full members**.
|
|
|
|
{!save-changes.md!}
|
|
|
|
{end_tabs}
